Little Piles Everywhere

Being so scatterbrained lately, I've come to realize that I have little piles of "this and that" in odd places around the house.  And when it comes to finding things .... my memory is on the fritz with all the stress.  So I spend too much time looking for things, and not enough time dealing with them.

I don't know how long this phase lasts, but I sure hope it passes quickly!

I'm big on pictures -- taking them, saving them, and folks who know how much I like pictures send them to me as well!  Especially family photos.  To me, it's important to know where you come from in order to get where you're going. 



I found these just yesterday,
in another one of these little piles,
so I'm going to share them.















Brian "spelunking" at Lava Beds National Monument 

and a joyous moment before jumping in the lake! 

Dear Brian,
You gave me moments of sheer joy; I will never forget the laughs and tears, the adventures and mishaps we've shared over the years. 
I miss you every day,
Love, Mom

Weigh In Weds

Weigh In Weds :  Down another pound, and still fighting to reach that magical six more!  Ugh, its frustrating at times, but I don't let it get me down.  I just keep plugging along, and I'll get my tat yet! 

Allan worked me very very hard today ... I did planks on a medicine ball.  the real kind from my toes, and not the modified from my knees.   I also did 'wall sits' ... he asked for 20 seconds first time, I gave him 30.  He asked for 40 seconds the second time, I gave him 45.  My legs are fatigued, but it feels so good.   I'll be back in the gym tomorrow for some more :)

Work was intense, we're gearing up for inventory, and that's a complex process to prep for, and it means a lot of extra work for me.  But that's ok, busy makes the day goes by.



But the best joy is coming home to Sadie, we worked in the backyard and played fetch.  Oh!  and the lil smarty-pants was hungry, brought me her empty food dish so that I'd fill it.  hahaha  I busted up laughing :)

Hope you found something

to bring you laughter today!
